Uh oh, it's going to be one of those SLOW invasions

Saw this on reddit.com and had to share:

Components with an agenda!

I had to google the part number. I found another one, but I can't (without buying it) verify the name on that transformer:
Firebox 380-Q15H-1 WatchGurd Power Supply Module | eBay

Maybe someone with an ebay.co.uk account could click "ask a question" and ask the seller "Does that yellow transformer on the left say what I think it says?"

Also, the Google search for that part also brings up another computer component, a "Seagate Maxtor Conner" disk drive:

http://www.google.com/search?q="380-Q15H-1"

I don't know what to make of this. That's all I got.

I have a feeling this is just those company's (or at least upper management's?) way of expressing their fondness for the movie series or sci-fi in general. Kinda nice to see some humor/humanity in an otherwise mathematically-based business.
